Will O'Rourke Ruled Out of Zimbabwe Game
New Zealand vs Zimbabwe 2nd Test: The second and final Test of the ongoing series between New Zealand and Zimbabwe is scheduled to be played in Bulawayo from August 7.
New Zealand fast bowler Will O'Rourke will miss the second Test against Zimbabwe because of a back injury, New Zealand Cricket said on Tuesday. Left-arm pacer Ben Lister, who hasn’t played a Test yet, has been added to the squad as a backup for the two-match series.
O'Rourke played in the first Test and felt back stiffness on Day 3 while bowling at Queens Cricket Club in Bulawayo. He bowled 23 overs and took three wickets in that match.
New Zealand won the first Test by nine wickets and will aim for a series sweep when the second Test starts on August 7.
